🐛 [BUG] - Surface Pro 4 Touchscreen is stuck on a mouse input

[mattwhite7982]

Description

When I go and try and setup bliss OS from a live boot USB it ends up just being stuck on a mouse input and not using the touchscreen instead, sort of like the OS thinks a keyboard is connected to my surface at all times

Reproduction steps

1. Boot from live USB
2. Touch the screen
3. Should see a mouse cursor appear instead

Live boot can behave differently than native install

Have you tried a full install and faced the same?
Have you noticed the boot option called "PC mode"? (May not be an option from the USB installer. However, can be added as cmdline parameter to Grub boot menu entry). Differs from booting regular mode in several ways. PC mode is expecting a mouse and keyboard. Touch input is still detected the same, handling is different.

Also, You just specified "16" which is not specific enough. Please provide the full .ISO filename you are using. The EXACT .ISO filename gives us better understanding of which build may have an issue.

For the version I've been trying to install Bliss-Surface-v16.9.7-x86_64-OFFICAL-gapps-20241012.iso

And no I've not attempted to install the OS yet

I have been experiencing the same thing, but I have installed mine with no difference.

Same here. Stuck with mouse, no touch (rather, touch only moves the mouse cursor). Surface Pro 3. Bliss-Surface-v16.9.7-x86_64, Bliss-Surface-v15.9.2-x86_64.

Same happens to me with a Surface Pro 2017 (5th Generation).
The touchscreen acts as a trackpad, moving a cursor on the screen.

Happens both in the live version and installed.

I have got the same problem with a surface 4 pro, the touch screen moves the mouse cursor.
I tried these two roms:

Bliss-Surface-v16.9.7-x86_64, Bliss-Surface-v15.9.2-x86_64. 2024-10-12 versions
